Thread: Moose

I havent been that skinny for a long time...they all had their heads down with their walking sticks going. To be fair, theres not a lot to see on the Dusky track, just mud...

well good luck with the moose search by the way what do they eat like - tough as or can they be good eating - just curious - have to be someone who has been Canada or Alaska last one was shot here I think it was 1928

I have heard its much like venison, coarser grained. The last one shot was in about 1971 by Gordon Anderson, a commercial meat shooter. Before that was a bull in 1952 by Percy Lyes, a deer culler. Others were shot in the 1930's. Some certainly undocumented as well, and some by fishermen over the years.

I should take Ken Tustin my copy of his book and get him to update it with a pen on the back page with the helicopter sighting in 1920 and this new one in Keppler.
